(Sutter County, CA) – The Federal Bureau of Reclamation has awarded a $1-million-dollar, 50/50 cost share grant to the Sutter Mutual Water Company for irrigation efficiency improvement, water saving technology and automated water delivery systems. The general manager tells The Appeal-Democrat they provide water “to over 46,000 acres of land in Sutter County” and that the remainder of the cost of improvements will be provided by those receiving the water.
The projects are estimated to be completed by the end of the year.
